Chapter 11 - Chapter 11: From Resolute Determination to Giving Up Treatment

"Director Zhou, I want to perform this surgery."

The two were walking outside when Qin Feng suddenly spoke.

"What?"

Director Zhou Xianren was stunned, his eyes widened as he spoke.

"I want to try."

Hearing Qin Feng's determined tone, he fell silent, deeply staring at the young and handsome face in front of him.

"This patient is old, the thrombus is close to the brainstem, even Old Zhang only has about 50% likelihood.

Do you know what that means?"

Director Zhou's voice lowered significantly, filled with seriousness,

"How confident are you?"

"80%."

Qin Feng thought for a moment and still gave a conservative number.

Crack!

Upon hearing his words, Director Zhou was stunned, his mouth wide open, unsure of what to say.

80%!

What does that mean?

Director Zhang Fan is not only the top heart and cerebrovascular surgeon at the city's first hospital but also a renowned expert in Su Province!

If he says there's only a fifty-fifty chance, even if other experts from Su Province are invited, the variation won't exceed 10%.

Now Qin Feng speaks of an 80% chance!

This is completely surpassing Zhang Fan's level!

But how old is he?

24 years old!

Director Zhang Fan has specialized in heart and cerebrovascular for over twenty years to achieve today's accomplishments and confidence.

But in Qin Feng's mouth, it seems the status is suddenly much lowered.

"Are you... are you serious?"

Director Zhou still couldn't fully believe it, swallowed hard and asked.

Qin Feng nodded without speaking.

He fell into contemplation. If that's the case, he was willing to let Qin Feng go ahead!

After all, this little guy has given him so many shocks during this period.

Even the number of surgeries has already reached the standard of an attending physician!

Sometimes Director Zhou even doubted himself.

Have I spoiled him too much?

...

Outside the emergency room,

Qin Feng walked to the family members, who all stood up.

"Doctor, how is it?"

"Family members, don't be anxious, let's sit down and talk slowly."

Director Zhou first stepped forward and said,

"The patient's current condition is stable, but not very optimistic because he has a thrombus in the brainstem and can't use thrombolysis but only craniotomy."

...

After a detailed explanation, several nodded, indicating they understood.

"Our suggestion is to operate quickly to remove the thrombus. The longer it takes, the worse it is for the patient."

Director Zhou looked at the family members with a serious expression.

"Then..."

After speaking, the group exchanged looks, and the leading middle-aged woman spoke,

"What's the success rate of the surgery?"

"50%."

Upon hearing this, Director Zhou glanced at Qin Feng beside him, pondered for a moment before saying.

He didn't tell the family Qin Feng's probability because of the high risk!

Even if Qin Feng is 100% sure, no one can guarantee certainty.

If the family agrees to surgery under this situation, it means they truly trust the hospital and are willing to treat the old man.

But if using Qin Feng's 80% rate, even a slight problem occurs.

It could very likely ruin his future!

He can't let Qin Feng take this risk!

Director Zhang Fan is also an expert in heart and cerebrovascular, prioritizing his plan as the baseline.

The rest depends on the family's choice.

Director Zhou struggled inside but didn't regret.

Because he's seen too much...

"Doctor, can we consider it?"

The woman in front looked back at the three men behind her, her husband and two brothers.

"That's fine. We have stabilized the patient's vital signs, but a quick decision is still necessary."

After speaking, Director Zhou nodded and led Qin Feng away.

Inside the office,

"Liu Juan, coordinate with cardiology, transfer the patient to their ward, and complete the handover record."

"Okay, I got it, Director."

Liu Juan took the result slip from him and walked out.

At this time,

Only Director Zhou and himself were left in the office.

Qin Feng curiously looked at Director Zhou, not knowing why he was called to the office.

"Qin Feng, do you know why I didn't tell the family about your success rate?"

Director Zhou's lips curled into a slight smile, looking at him and said.

"I understand, Director Zhou is doing it for my good."

Hearing that, Qin Feng nodded.

"The old man is already over seventy, brainstem thrombus involves many risks in such a level-four surgery, a slight mishap could fail.

Those family members outside the emergency room are dressed modestly, the elder sister clearly calls the shots, her husband and brothers listen to her.

Even if the surgery succeeds, they have to face high surgery costs and follow-up care.

I'm afraid..."

Speaking up to this point, a bitter smile appeared on his face.

Director Zhou breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing Qin Feng's words.

He was really afraid Qin Feng would blame him, why even with such confidence, he deliberately held back.

But now it's fine, at least he can understand his painstaking effort.

In this emergency, if the sky falls, he, the director, bears it!

But Qin Feng, you still have a long way ahead!

"Haha~ Alright! Hearing you say that puts my mind at ease."

Zhou Xianren couldn't help but laugh and gave his shoulder a firm pat,

"Hurry up now. That old school friend of mine is waiting for you to come home for dinner together."

After saying, he walked towards the door with his hands behind his back, suddenly turned around, and raised his eyebrow at him,

"The girl from Director Chen's family is not bad. Yan'Er will graduate from the Imperial City next year and return. Consider it."

Qin Feng (⊙o⊙)...

He looked helpless, hadn't graduated yet, and was already being thought about?

But there's no choice. Just go.

After all, he already promised!

When Chen Yuanfang walked with him to the car, she was also stunned.

"Xiaoxin, is this your car?"

She pointed at the Porsche in front of her, somewhat surprised.

"Yes, it's because I live pretty far, so it's just a commuting car."

Qin Feng nodded, opened the car door for Chen Yuanfang, speaking in a casual tone.

After all, it was given by the system.

And in the past two or three months, he already had over 300,000 in earnings in his account.

This was while Qin Feng controlled the number of daily consultations to ensure every patient received a perfect diagnosis, and he remained relaxed.

If he put in extra effort, it would've probably surpassed 500,000 long ago!

"Xiaoxin, where's your family from?"

In the car, Chen Yuanfang casually chatted with him, but each question had deeper implications.

"I'm from Pengcheng, now working here."

"Oh, then do you live alone or rent with someone?"

Chen Yuanfang nodded and asked.

"I live alone now, though it's a bit far from work, it's more relaxed by myself."

Qin Feng smiled and replied.

"Yes, you're just starting your internship, not earning much yet, so you need to save.

Look, renting alone each month costs quite a bit, and you drive such a good car."

Chen Yuanfang advised him like a concerned mother,

"I understand young people tend to spend ahead of their means, but you must consider the future. It's not easy to buy a house now.

Where do you live now?"

"I live in Jiangcheng Garden."

Qin Feng awkwardly wiped his nose and said softly.

"Jiangcheng Garden? That Jiangcheng Garden?"

Chen Yuanfang, hearing his words, paused again, surprised and doubtful,

"That's the best neighborhood in the city center, why did you choose to live there? It's not only far, but the rent isn't cheap!"

"Cough cough cough~ Well, Deputy Director Chen, I didn't rent."

He sighed inwardly and explained.

Even though he is still an intern, with the system's aid, he's not short of money.

"Didn't rent?"

Chen Yuanfang took a while to respond, finally came to, and slightly opened her mouth,

"You...bought?"

"Yes, you could say that, it is indeed my house."

Qin Feng nodded.

...

For a moment, the car was silent, and he felt somewhat intimidated by those shocked eyes beside him.

Chen Yuanfang, however, was overwhelmed with emotions inside, truly startled.

But didn't think of it in terms of Qin Feng himself, how could a little intern afford to buy a house?

His family so wealthy?

Instinctively, her gaze held more admiration.

Finally home, during dinner, Chen Yuanfang constantly urged her daughter to serve Qin Feng.

Making him uncomfortable and quite embarrassed.

However, Liu Yan'Er was indeed beautiful, studying finance in the Imperial City, now in junior year.

Her face was charming with delicate features, a graceful nose, cherry-red lips, like a beauty from a painting.

Her hair cascaded from her forehead, fluttering in the breeze, slender brows under which her eyes lightly watched.

Back at the hospital, many doctors were quite enamored, their hearts stirred.

Sadly, she was Deputy Director Chen's daughter!

Nobody dared openly~~~

Finally, dinner finished,

after thanking, Qin Feng quickly drove away under Chen Yuanfang's smiling gaze.

In the following two days,

he continued to sign in and see patients as usual.

[Ding! Day 62 sign-in, congratulations to the host for gaining (Global Expanded Pancreaticectomy Experience)]

[Ding! Day 63 sign-in, congratulations to the host for gaining (Global Heart Replacement Surgery Experience)]

...

Suddenly,

after sending off a patient, Director Zhou came in.

"Director Zhou."

"Xiaoxin, remember the patient with the brainstem thrombosis?"

Zhou Xianren looked at him and said.

"I remember, is the surgery going to happen?"

Qin Feng nodded, and Director Zhou shook his head and sighed.

"Alas, the family has abandoned treatment."

After saying that, he paused, after a few seconds, a bitter smile lifted his lips.

Indeed,

Qin Feng anticipated this outcome, but didn't expect it to really happen.

From the initial determined stance at the hospital, treating no matter the disease or cost!

In just two days, actively giving up on treatment.

Perhaps this is the dilemma faced by doctors, as they don't have the power to choose for the patients.

But,

That elderly man could only lie in bed next, quietly waiting for death...
